[HEXUS]

Can it compete with the best premium graphics cards?

Lol..£250

No thanks...

[danroyle]

thats one expensive card

and at what point did mid range grpahics go from £150-200 to now £250-300

[Tact.X]

I feel so ripped off an an English customer, why should I pay £250+ when American's pay about £200 ?(when exchanged)... It makes no sense, why would I upgrade my 560ti for this? 7 series I might go for an upgrade, but not this.

[brasco]

Are they mad!? They have a killer mid-high range in the 670, they could clean up if this was reasonably priced here..

After reading this review, I'm happy with my GTX 670 Power Ed but if I was aat 1080p I would'nt be... The Price will soon settle down & you'll be able to pick one of these up for below £200 !

American prices do not include tax, which is state dependent (6-10%) when purchased in state. While there is still a small gap, it's never as large as it looks. Take 20% off our price (£250 - 20% = £200) and it looks more reasonable.

Too expensive for me, was hoping for 560ti prices,

Seems like Nvidia don't want any of the mid-range market this time around

I am still trying to decide whether it's just because nV have pulled further away from AMD and feel they can justify charging more or because sales have fallen dramatically or whether they do really cost that much more to make.....or a combination of these factors.

Whatever it is, I am not a fan of the new GPU pricings.

[HalloweenJack]

GTX 660 non ti will be £200 and GTX 650Ti will be £150


OMG srsly , nvidia MID RANGE beats AMD`s top end oO


edit: and at 2.50pm scan have the cheapest @£239

AMD's top end totally destroys this. Xbit benched the 7970 GHz edition a few days ago and it was 20-30% faster than the 680.

As for pricing...come on we went over this with the AMD cards months ago. They are not going to release a new card at the same price as the old card. Think about it.

You're not a fan of Scan on Facebook then lol.

NVIDIA is on something of a roll right now, with it’s GeForce GTX 670 and GTX 680 cards ruling the high-end of the graphics card market for quite a few months now. However, up until now, gamers on a tighter budget have not been able to move up to the GeForce 600-series and take advantage of all the goodness that its Kepler architecture brings.

That all changed today though, when NVIDIA roled out a more modestly priced GPU, the GeForce GTX 660 Ti..

Apparently the 660Ti replaces the 460/560 as well, although I'm not sure when they were ever £250.

when did hexus stop doing the bang4buck and bang4watt thing?

[kalniel]

Is anyone else thinking: where's the single slot version?

[Nabobalis]

I have to admit, if you could get one of those for £225, it would be something special. However at the moment, its only £15 less than the 7950. Overclockers is selling a 7950 for £240 this week as well.

But, they always used to be in the same ballpark.....this time around they are no-where remotely close to the cards they SHOULD be replacing.
